Hello Dear Friends,
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. We had some crazy weather changes and Friday was really cold and raining. Thank goodness, it is over now and sun is shining again.
However, enough about the weather and lets talk about this delicious new recipe! Who loves Japanese food? It always was one of my favorites especially teriyaki! Unfortunately, it has been very long time since I dine in Japanese restaurant, not only because I am vegan, but also because of COVID restrictions.
Last time I was out for walk with my daughter, we passed by a beautiful big Japanese restaurant. It was completely empty, as we could see through the big windows and I thought how nice it would be to go in.
Oh well, sadly that is not possible, right now, so I decided to make my own Vegan Chick’n Teriyaki, at home. And oh boy, it turned out absolutely amazing! Besides, much healthier than the one they serve in restaurants. Although, it is nice to sit at the table and be served once in while. That part I miss!
VEGAN CHICK’N TERIYAKI
Vegan Chick’n Teriyaki with Homemade Sauce has all the delicious flavors of Japanese cuisine, yet it is a healthier version of the restaurant kind. Also, easy to make without any special cooking skills.

Notes
The Teriyaki sauce can be stored in a refrigerator up to two weeks as long it is sealed in a proper container. If it get's thicker, just add little bit of warm water and stir thoroughly.
Soy curls are available on AMAZON
It is an excellent GMO free product with no additives. It is the next best vegan product after tempeh and tofu.

Thank you so much..............I am trying to vote for your proposal, however I am not sure if it goes trough, since I am not getting to any page. I always get a confirmation key, but I have no idea what for!
I have not tried any Japanese food so far, but generally I like anything edible. Sometimes I am happy, if I can bring anything to the table (nowadays my income is less than the minimum wage).
By the way, I tried only Hungarian, Greek, Russian and Chinese food so far. It would be interesting to try Japanese and other foods.
I give you some !PIZZA.

Thank you so much 💚🙏💚
Well I am on disability pension, so we are practically in the same boat! Nevertheless, making your own food saves money! Thank you so much, I am happy you like it 💚🙏💚
We are literally on the same boat. I have multiple disabilities, and I receive a pension-like income. Besides this income nowadays I also work in a 4 hours part time job.
Ooh I might have to try this teriyaki sauce. Maple syrup is such a good idea. The only recipe I've tried so far to make homemade teriyaki sauce, which I got out of a cookbook, wasn't great. It was more like "soy sauce with some stuff in it," lol. Way too thin for teriyaki.

Oh I see! Well, it is important to make it thicker with arrow root or even just with corn starch. That's what does the trick, but yes, the maple syrup is also a must! Thank you so much! I am glad you like it 💖😍💖

You're welcome @lenasveganliving 😊🌹👍 Thanks for your good vibes!
I don't know much of Japanese food but this one really makes me want to eat.
Awwwwwwwwww, you are so sweet! Thank you so much Darling, I am happy you like it 💚🙏💚
There is a real art to food photography and you seem to have mastered it! Excellent post and the food looks delicious!
Awwwwwwwwwww! Thank you so much Keith. Although I am still learning and truly appreciate your compliment 💚🙏💚
My family would particularly love this recipe. They are more recent #plantbased converts, so they still miss the texture and taste of certain meats at times. We have a few products here in Suriname similar to what you've used to make this recipe, so perhaps I'll make a similar dish soon.
Awesome recipe, cool GIF, stellar photography, and awesome formatting. This is an exemplary post.

This is so right up my alley. I could eat three plates. You made green beans look absolutely amazing. I must try this dish soon.
This meal looks incredible! I'm a passionate vegan myself, and I'm always eager to find new recipes to try out. 😋💚
I love Japanese flavors, but just like you, I don't get to dine in Japanese restaurants very often since I am vegan and allergic to soy. I can do soy in little amounts like tamari, but tofu or other soy-based products are a nono for me :( Fortunately, we have a Japanese friend here who happens to be a vegan and an excellent cook! I wish I could make this though because it looks so good and as always beautifully presented! Maybe I'll use your recipe as a base and try to make a soy-less version of it!
